James Oswald is the author of the bestselling Inspector Maclean series of novels, as well as the fantasy series, The Ballad of Sir Benfro, and more. His latest book, All That Lives, is the twelfth in the Inspector Maclean series.It was really interesting hearing how James made his breakthrough via self-publishing and how his success there led to traditional publishers bidding to try and get the rights to his novels. We also talked about how he juggles being a farmer with his writing, why publishers always say they want something new, even if that's not always the case, and hear about his latest book, All That Lives. On top of that, we talk about his love of comics and what he has planned in the future.Links:Buy All That Lives and James's other books nowVisit James's websiteFollow James on TwitterPage One - The Writer's Podcast is brought to you by Write Gear, creators of Page One - the Writer's Notebook.
